Chapter 2460: Eager to Make Contributions

Hamid's gratitude to Ye Chen had long been like the surging river, continuous and endless, and like the flooding of the Yellow River, out of control.

If it weren't for Ye Chen, he would have been taken away by Wanlong Palace and the government army long ago.

Not to mention that Ye Chen also cured his lame leg of decades and gave him a lot of funds to consolidate his defense.

Now, with Wanlong Palace mediating in the middle, it has given him a good opportunity for peaceful development.

But he didn't expect that even so, Ye Chen was still not demanding and still very generous to him.

With the specifications of Wanlong Palace's current underground works, even if it were presented at his base on a small scale, it would be difficult to land without a cost of 100 million US dollars.

For Hamid, this was something he didn't even dare to think about.

And Ye Chen actually agreed to help him build it for free without even thinking about it. This generosity made Hamid even more moved.

Therefore, he held Ye Chen's hand and said firmly: "Brother Ye, Allah is above, in the Middle East in the future, if you have any need for me, just say the word, even if I have to risk my life, I will go all out!"

Ye Chen nodded and smiled: "With your words, brother, our efforts are worth it."

For Ye Chen, Hamid is a friend, but even more a comrade-in-arms.

As long as Hamid can firmly maintain a friendly stance with him, he can continue to maintain the three-party balance in Syria, which will be of great benefit to the stable development of Wanlong Palace.

Therefore, in order to prevent Hamid from being too weak in this three-party balance, the aid he needs must be given, and the aid he doesn't even dare to think about must also be given.

Therefore, he said to Wan Pojun: "Pojun, after our first phase of the project is completed, first design an upgrade plan for Commander Ha's base, and then start the first phase of the project at Commander Ha's base. All costs will be borne by Wanlong Palace."

Wan Pojun said without thinking: "Okay, Mr. Ye, this subordinate understands."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said to Hamid: "Brother, I can't stay too long this time. I have to go back in a few hours. There are still many things to deal with here, so I won't reminisce with you. When I come next time, we will find time to gather again."

Hamid said with some reluctance: "Brother Ye, you came from so far away, and you only stay for a few hours? You should at least stay for a day to go to my place to walk around, look around, and inspect the work. The changes there are huge now, all thanks to you!"

Ye Chen smiled: "I will definitely visit next time. I really can't spare extra time this time."

Seeing this, Hamid nodded and said: "Okay, since your time is tight, I won't delay your time. You go ahead and get busy, we will gather again next time."

Saying this, he pointed to his work clothes and said: "I'll go change my clothes and go back first."

"Okay." Ye Chen nodded, shook hands with him again, and said: "Then I won't see you off!"

Hamid said very crisply: "Okay, okay, brother, you go ahead and get busy, don't worry about me."

The two waved goodbye, and Ye Chen walked into the main building of the base core area with Wan Pojun.

Walking into the building, Ye Chen said to Wan Pojun: "Pojun, arrange a conference room with the highest level of confidentiality, call Inspector Li and Wu death date over, and also bring the seven Cavalry Guards you brought back."

"Okay, Mr. Ye!" Wan Pojun immediately took Ye Chen to a conference room without windows, and then asked someone to invite Li Yalin and Wu death date first.

Li Yalin didn't expect Ye Chen to come to Syria in person and asked with some surprise: "Young Master Ye, why did you come here in person?" 【2460-2

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "Detective Li, I just came from Northern Europe and brought over a few more members of the mysterious organization. There are more people this time, and they are not dead soldiers; they are one level higher than the dead soldiers."

"Not dead soldiers?" Li Yalin asked in surprise, "Then what rank are they? What are their responsibilities within the organization?"

Ye Chen explained, "They call themselves the Brave Cavalry Guards internally, and they are specifically responsible for guarding the dead soldiers."

Sitting in his wheelchair, 547 was astonished after hearing this and said, "Brave Cavalry Guards? Are they the Brave Cavalry Guards responsible for guarding us?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "According to Detective Li's analysis, your base should be near Sri Lanka, but the base for these Brave Cavalry Guards is in Cyprus. They are thousands of kilometers apart, and the Persian Gulf and the entire Middle East region lie between them."

"Cyprus?!" Upon hearing this, Li Yalin exclaimed, "Young Master Ye, Cyprus is just to the west of Syria. The distance to the nearest coastline of Syria is less than two hundred kilometers."

"Correct." Ye Chen nodded and said, "Their base is a copper mine located in the coastal area of Cyprus. It is said that there is also a copper smelter in Turkey. The ore produced by the copper mine is basically exported to the copper smelter in Turkey, forming an internal closed loop, which makes it even harder for the outside world to peek into its secrets."

Wan Pojun said with some excitement, "Mr. Ye, since they are so close, why not plan it out properly? The Wanlong Palace troops can move out together and raze their base to the ground!"

Ever since Ye Chen spared his life at Mount Ye Ling, allowed him to preserve the remains of his parents, and even saw his own cultivation level improve due to a blessing in disguise, reaching the Dark Realm in one fell swoop, Wan Pojun had been eager to perform meritorious service for Ye Chen.

He is not a man with many hidden agendas.

If he owes someone affection, he thinks about returning it.

If he owes someone a favor, he also thinks about repaying it.

Originally, he thought that because Ye Chen spared him and incorporated the entire Wanlong Palace, he would definitely squeeze the value out of the Wanlong Palace as much as possible, or even force the entire Wanlong Palace to work for him.

However, he never dreamed that after Ye Chen incorporated the Wanlong Palace, not only did he rarely let the members of the Wanlong Palace take risks for him, but he even continuously provided the Wanlong Palace with various resources and help.

Moreover, the scale of his generosity completely exceeded Wan Pojun's imagination.

To say nothing else, just this base before his eyes was Wan Pojun's greatest dream for many years.

However, although he had spent many years in war-torn countries, he had never found an opportunity to get the local authorities to allow the Wanlong Palace to station itself within their borders.

Yet Ye Chen had done it with ease.

In addition to this, Ye Chen also helped the Wanlong Palace open up two clean businesses—armed escort and armed security—which have high returns, low risks, and are completely legal.

Not only that, Ye Chen also continuously provided financial support to the Wanlong Palace. Just based on the current scale, the Wanlong Palace would not be able to spend it all in the next ten or twenty years, even if they just sat on it.

Therefore, for some time now, Wan Pojun's desire to perform meritorious service for Ye Chen had become even more urgent.

He originally thought that the debt he and the Wanlong Palace owed Ye Chen was already immeasurable, but who would have thought that in Mexico, Ye Chen gave everyone a cup of celebration wine, which actually caused everyone's cultivation to have a qualitative improvement!

Ever since returning from Mexico, Wan Pojun had truly dreamed of charging into battle and killing enemies for Ye Chen.

Therefore, upon hearing Ye Chen say that he had already grasped the exact address of one of the mysterious organization's bases, he was eager to pull out this base for Ye Chen!

But Ye Chen waved his hand at this moment and said seriously, "A copper mine guarded by hundreds of Brave Cavalry Guards likely has very strong defensive power itself, not to mention the intricate underground fortifications. If we rush in, we will definitely be caught like turtles in a jar by the other side. Under these circumstances, the possibility of us wiping them out without exposing any clues is almost zero. Moreover, there are thousands of dead soldiers inside, as well as the relatives of thousands of dead soldiers. Those dead soldiers, being unaware of the situation, are also a huge hidden danger."

547, who was on the side, also nodded and said, "Mr. Ye is right. The dead soldiers and their families must regularly take the organization's antidote. So, even if they hate the organization to the bone for generations, once the organization encounters trouble, they will still subconsciously go up and fight for their lives."

As he spoke, 547 added, "For the dead soldiers, only by fighting for the organization will the organization give us the antidote. Otherwise, once the organization discovers that our loyalty is insufficient, they will kill our relatives first. After letting us see our relatives killed with our own eyes, they will then publicly execute us to show punishment."

"Moreover, because there is no antidote for the highly toxic poison, death is inevitable. Therefore, we dead soldiers are not afraid of fighting for our lives at all. Not fighting means certain death, and our relatives will also certainly die. Only by fighting with our lives do we have a chance to survive. Even if we die fighting, our families can be treated well."

"Therefore, if the Palace Master intends to attack this base, these dead soldiers will inevitably resist to the death at the first opportunity."

Hearing this, Wan Pojun realized how impulsive he had just been.

Embarrassed, he said to Ye Chen very apologetically, "I am sorry, Mr. Ye. It was my subordinate's lack of consideration that made a fool of myself. Please forgive me!"

Ye Chen said indifferently, "Those who do not know are not guilty. You were not on the scene when 547 told me these things, so it is understandable that you did not know the actual situation of these dead soldiers."

As he spoke, he added, "Bring those seven Brave Cavalry Guards over and let them give us a good introduction to the situation at the base."

"As you command!"

Soon, the seven Brave Cavalry Guards were brought in.

From the road here until now, these seven people had been very uneasy because they knew well that the highly toxic poison in their bodies would take effect in six days. If they did not get the antidote within these six days, the seven of them would surely die.

However, Ye Chen had originally promised to detoxify the highly toxic poison in their bodies, but before they could see Ye Chen again, Wan Pojun had brought them to Syria, so they felt even more uneasy in their hearts.

It was not until they walked into this conference room and saw Ye Chen that the seven of them finally felt as if they had seen a savior.

Therefore, after seeing Ye Chen, the leader among them immediately said with great excitement, "Sir, you... you are here too!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly, pointed to the row of empty seats in front of him, and smiled, "Sit down first. There are some situations I need to understand from you in more depth."

"No problem!" The man agreed quickly, but his expression remained somewhat uneasy.

He was afraid that Ye Chen had no intention of detoxifying them at all, but rather intended to squeeze out all the information they knew within these few days and then leave them to fend for themselves.

Ye Chen also saw the worry and uneasiness in their expressions, so he smiled slightly, walked up to them, and patted each of them on the shoulder before saying, "Are you worried that I won't keep my promise to detoxify you?"

The seven looked at each other, but no one dared to answer.

The leader plucked up the courage to nod, and only then did the others dare to follow him and nod gently.

Ye Chen smiled playfully and said, "It's normal to be worried, but you don't have to worry now. The poison in your bodies has already been cleared!"
